Shadow Dancing in the USA

'Shadow Dancing' is the sum of its parts: essays confronting a variety of pressing subjects (or thought to be pressing in the 1980's) on American society. Some of the essays are stronger than others, there are a variety of interesting and thought provolking insights, but some of the idea development is spotty. However, on the whole, a worthwhile read: a kind of Celestine Prophesy of the mind at times, at others, a male empowerment how-to manual, but always an interesting and thoughtful book.
